This is not exactly unusual. You should first check to see if
lc_collate is set differently in the two installations --- but even if
it's the same, there are often platform-specific interpretations of
the sorting rules. (Not to mention that OS X is flat out broken when
it comes to sorting UTF8 data ...)
If you want consistent cross-platform results, "C" locale will get
that for you, but it's pretty stupid about non-ASCII characters.
